Yes, fantastic advice. The dark night of the soul is essential to understand. And there wont be just one of them either! Some last a long while, others are more fleeting. And what happens is you learn to watch them come and go, like waves in the sea. Is that boring? To not be pulled about like a puppet anymore by unconscious knee jerk responses? I do have friends who are obviously disapointed that I dont want to go out and drink and party and all that hooha, really. I have even been the recipient of backhanders from resentful pals about 'escapism' .... practise can seem that way to those utterly caught up in the web. But I am not disapointed, myself, that I have shifted into a different gear. Even though it is a very alone place to be. Because the 'fun' now is so very different, and unexpected. I go to sleep smiling, and it is a smile that comes from the energy inside me that is happy to claim me now that the lights are off, so that we can be alone. It's a long long smile that doesnt make my face ache and comes from a deep place. So it is nourishing. I feel absolutely liberated from not being so sexually driven anymore. Aiiee, what a puppetmaster is sex! .broken., you are a beautiful person. I am writing in this optimistic mode today, and my practise is getting very rewarding now, and yet in my practise a few months ago, pain and aloness were uppermost in me. My guess is that it will come round again. Mining is the right image, we are like sedimentary rock! Feeling bored and boring is just one more layer.

perfect!

Hello dao seeker. I love your avatar photo. Welcome!

Oh, was he a born again Christian? In that case, she could have asked him if he wanted to be her 100th Mile High Club buddy. Never mind the acupuncture dude, let's get it on! Then he would have been the one who'd be asking to get his seat changed..

As our energy flow becomes clear and full, our emotions become balanced and our thoughts become calmer. So any good practice will create this for you. Which is nice! So erratic emotions are a sign of unbalanced energy, within the organs. A system which works very directly with this is Mantak Chia's "transforming Stress into Vitality" - a very simple system which allows you to get in tune with each organ and vent toxic energy from it. It can be a handy 'first aid tool', as it allows you to get to know your organ and its emotional correlation very initimately, so that any surge of emotion that you feel is uncontrollable of innapropriate, can be traced back to it's organ of origin and vented via the sounds and breaths taught in this system. So that is one system which works explicitly with the emotions.

waltzing mathilda?!! No, much as it's an amusing song, it's not quite my cup of tea. Anyway, if you try Dirk, let us know how you get on.

rain.. in the post above I put a 'b' in a bracket, but it came out as a smiley in shades! yes, they are indeed top of the pops, otherwise I wouldnt even mention them. I think you would love Dirk, everyone does. he is adorable and lovely and I love him! He is incredibly talented and in a whole other league than other body workers. he started the 4D school in Belgium. Google him if you are interested. Is the block to do with sentimental emotion? Or maybe you dont wish to discuss... eh, agree/disagree... what of it.. we are on the same path, it's neither here nor there. We each have our own experience I think, rather than are attached to 'opinions'.

ha, nomad. I do understand what you are saying. But no, I dont feel boring. I do feel very clean in my energy and very uninhibited. I talk to whoever I want,dont talk to people I dont feel drawn to, say what I want, dont talk what I dont want to, and probably seem eccentric and arrogant and 'keeping myself to myself' and 'a lone wolf'. Ho hum I am truly glad, however, that I came to all this after my years as a student and years of nightclubbing and unmogonomous behaviour, sleeping with the prettiest people and being steeped in 'fun' and 'groove'. I would have hated to have missed all that. It was soooo fun. But right now I like outspoken people who have a sharp wit and a surreal sense of humour, and I love conversation that is free flowing and not bound by convention. I enjoy colour and sound, and dancing, and making interesting food. I do like even the pulpiest movies, but partly as an anthropologist or to compare how it is now, to how it was then, because I'm fascinated by humanity. And I find them funny. And yes, there are sadly a lot of people that I cannot get motivated to see, and I feel that I have nothing to offer to those who want to meet up to exchange information about what you have been DOING, and are planning to DO. Because when you explain you are more into BEING, then that is just too much of a stumper, and I dont like doing that to people. It IS weird, all the changes we go through. Feeling boring/bored is hopefully just an adjustment phase, and once you are more adjusted into the newer you, pleasure and fun of new kinds will unveil themselves.

Bizarrely, I lost my copy of Dragon Gate before I got to read it. I still cant believe it disapeared , which is why I havent bought a new one. So I cant read that page. Anway rain, you say you have a blockage which is proving resistant.. two things come to mind a)what is the reference to sentimental emotion about, I havent got info about how that is relevant to your practise in terms of a startlingly talented body worker, I know two, one is half the time at Shaolin and the other half in London. and the other is Dirk Oellibrandt who is around in Belgium. The chinese guy would treat you with so much chi your body has to drop what it is holding, and Dirk would know more or less straight away what is blocked in you and use his 4dimensional skills to melt it away. You feel you have lost beginners mind? I tell you what. When the process is going well, it keeps you at beginners mind. The lack of beginners mind that you feel is a side effect of the block. imho.

This subject is what I think we used to call 'mind wank.'

? I dont get it. you mean you find it a challenge to let the spontaneous movements flow?

Could someone explain this discussion to me? Are you saying that people at KL workshops arent moving spontaneously, but are faking it in the hope that they make it?

I'm sorry Carolyn got so upset. As Harry said, I'd say 'do some EFT on your emotional response to him, work out your own hit upon nerve and what is behind it". And to the good Dr, I'd say "Your opinion is the mainstream one, for sure. A lot of folks would agree with you." And then do what Trunk said.

yes, thankyou Apcech7, for the fascinating and clear info. We will drink up any more you have, too, so feel free.. I was at the BM recently too, and noticed now very intense the energy is in The Egyptian Rooms... ooogh.. didnt care for it at all.
